They realize that black on black crime is "normal and accepted", but the rare white on black crime will raise some hackles in the community where little positive gets done and people have way too much time on their hands.


jacksonville papers are reporting today that the jaguars will soon be traded to london for Fulham FC.  that was khan's plan all along.  i'm all for it. 

cake says fulham will be in the champions league next year.

The guy tried to take the law into his own hands...which he wasn't licensed to do. 

I have a good idea that when he confronted Martin he wasn't exactly nice about it.... the verbal discussion ecalated into a fight ... and George shot him when he couldn't get the best of him.  Guess George realized that fighting males is harder than beating women

Luckily for Zimmerman he had the law on his side as opposed to emotion and speculation.

If you doubt what I say then Google "Not Guilty".

Unfortunately many people in this country don't know the law and choose to have their own trial and jury.  Why bother listening to facts when your mind is already made up?  Then they get all righteous and go rioting, doing more harm to people and costing their city more money than the trial did.  Idiocy at it's finest.

I'ts almost impossible to get a guilty verdict on a self defense claim when little of the altercation was witnessed. Nobody knows for sure what happened...that is why he was found not guilty.  

Any defense attorney worth his/her salt was going to get him off. The prosecutors should have known that murder was not a realistic objective based on the evidence they had. Manslaughter was really the best they could have hoped for and that honestly was reaching. 

What I can't stand is people who act like Martin was the instigator. Zimmerman was following him around... am sorry but most people would take offence to someone doing that to them and would probably most certainly confront the individual.  Did it give Martin the right to strike Zimmerman? No it doesn't....but unfortunately we don't know what was said between the two.  Zimmerman could have threatened Martin and is the reason he smacked him. And if that was the case Martin acted well within his own rights.  But with no witnesses it's easy for Zimmerman to imply something else. Lets keep in mind that Zimmerman implied that he was taking a savage beating even though it shows he exaggerated that claim.

These are the cases that are scary to me. I think it sends the wrong message to people that they can take the law into their own hands and are justifiable in doing so.  Last thing we need is wild west sort of justice

all i know is if i stalk a black, white, asian, or anyone at night (especially when i think they are a punk hoodlum!!!)and i confront them i might just get my azz kicked!  

but again i realize common sense has left the world long ago

transcripts


No evidence he followed him nor was he obligated to take directive from a dispatcher, but it's nice to know that the 'rule of law' is so meaningful to you, Jackasslands.

what are you talking about rule of law jerkoff     where did i say the law wasnt applied? show me.   i completely understand why he was found not guilty. a lot of it is what sparty said.  i also understand why casey anthony was found not guilty of murder 1 too if you want to get into that one.  what i cant stand is you  aclu nut huggers who think he did nothing wrong and  yappin about there is no proof he didnt instigate a fight because its not in evidence.  maybe if you and your pedo baby avatar had an ounce of common sense you could figure if  he just stayed in his car and wasnt a wannabe mall cop  none of this would have  happened.  he went lookin for trouble and found it. your the dude that would argue there s no proof a tree made noise when it fell if nobody witnessed it.  you can say all you want  he doesnt have to listen to a dispatcher, and you re right!!, but if he did none of this would ve happened. either way fat georgie boys life is over now in this country. there isnt  a place your homeboy can go where he wont be found and told to the world in 5 seconds.   so maybe you can help him get down to mexican coast and he can plant his azz on a nice esplanade and remind himself every day if he had only just listened to the dispatcher

whether u agree or  dis........u must admit as a taxpaying u.s. citizen that the jury was representative of all  of us taxpaying citizens, welfare folks ,prisoners, and illegals i am not including here, we were the jury and we abide by there/our decision and respect it and uphold it and vigoursly defend it. it is our duty as american citizens.  We the people can amend/change these laws as we see fit by participating.   




1. gz is a mouse of the worst kind, a latent guy yellow bellied coward who any serviceman is blessed not to have in  a foxhole ship or plane w/them.

2. GZ shat his pants(inside source,bigpoo got the nose that  knose),after trayvon circled back and confronted fairy george and decked him in the face for being a " fkn person". he got so scared he tried to run and slipped fell and trayvon started to coconut GZ on the sidewalk. GZ had to shoot him or get a beating and possibly shot with his own gun. 

3. Trayvon most assuredly wouldve at least seen 2nd deg batt.  chrges lodged against him. IMO

He was already out of the car when on the phone with police dispatcher, he followed as the dispatcher was asking questions, do you see him, which way is he going, can you describe him, whats he wearing, and can you tell his race etc..... He was never told to not get out of car, only that he shouldn't continue following.... I see no wrong in what George did... infact I would, and have done the same thing in my neighborhood, when after a burglary at a church across the street from my home, I made it a point to keep a closer eye, and actually confronted people on numerous occasions, when seeing a car pulled back behind the church in the middle of the night... I have that right, just as George Zimmerman did, to protect my and my neighbors property. The kid saw him, got pissed off, and beat the hell out of him, and unfortunately got shot.... but had he, simply walked up and explained that he was walking to his dads home, he would be alive today.... Very unfortunate and sad, but in no way should GZ be convicted of anything, other than maybe being a puss.
